THC & CBD? What’s the difference?
THC is the compound most commonly associated with psychoactive effects while CBD is not. However, this understanding is “a huge misconception,” says Monique McHenry, Ph.D., director of the Medical Cannabis Center for Research and Education at the University of Vermont Medical School.
​
Lauren Rudick, partner of the cannabis practice at Hiller, PC, a law firm in New York, agrees with McHenry. “It’s an important distinction,” she says. CBD is still psychoactive, meaning it affects the mind—it’s just not intoxicating and doesn’t impair function.
​
The “high” from THC comes from its binding with CB1 receptors. Since CBD doesn’t attach to CB1 or CB2 receptors like THC does, it doesn’t produce the same intoxicating effect.
​
However, when CBD and THC are consumed together, CBD binds to the receptors and blocks THC from binding with them, thus mitigating some of the effects felt from the THC.
what is THC-P?
Tetrahydrocannabiphorol (THC-P) is a naturally occurring phytocannabinoid first isolated from Cannabis Sativa in 2019 by scientists in Italy performing analysis on a strain known as FM2. Structurally the only difference between THC-P and THC is that THC-P features a tail chain extended from pentyl to heptyl. This increased tail length is believed to contribute to higher binding affinity to both the CB1 and CB2 receptors and may also have unique properties.
Although THCP and Delta 9 THC are similar, they can be different in a few ways. THC-P is also stronger than Delta 9 THC. It is the strongest naturally occurring cannabinoid known to science. THC-P also has the ability to bind to the CB1 receptors in the body's endocannabinoid system 33 times more than Delta 9.
